Seriously, if you are going to go to the fucking trouble of getting people off of IE6, why not convince them to just fucking download firefox.

Because Microsoft has their own browser it wants people to use. They just want people to upgrade to the latest one and to stop using IE6 so they can finally drop the surely crippling legacy/quirksmode support for that ancient turd from their browser, and so the web can finally move the hell on.

IE9 is shaping up to be quite a decent modern browser, actually, and I look forward to its final release. In the meantime, getting people to use pretty much anything--firefox, opera, chrome, safari, even IE7/8--other than IE6 would be a huge blessing for web devs everywhere.

It's fine, Yuna - if you aren't designing a website for it. If you are a developer, you fucking want to pull out your hair. And the farther I get between all the different programming languages, the more I'm CONVINCED that Microsoft WANTS to commit suicide. Gone is the day and age of a company trying to monopolize products on the internet so that ONLY their company's software can be used.

Open source and multiplatform is the way of the world, but see, Microsoft seems to be slow on the catch. :\ And it's pissing me off. Having to have sections of our lessons (such as ajax) being divided into: this is how microsoft codes, and this is what is considered the standard, and here is the method to use to compile both - OH BUT WAIT! Every new edition of IE uses a different technique, so we have to duplicate codes here and here....

That is why I like science. Well, physics and chemistry, at least.

Although there are times when I want to strangle them both...
